Traditionally one of the earliest of summer vegetables, whether the seed is sown in autumn or spring, they are a tasty treat. There are two main types of broad beans; Longpods and Windsors (short pods).

Longpods are hardier, so well suited to autumn plantings for an earlier crop the following year. Superaquadulce is the ultimate in fine longpod broad beans, a classic for autumn planting which is high yielding, resilient and winter hardy.
